Tel Aviv is one of the pioneers in designing and EEG MEMs for Neurology diagnostics. Below you can read one of their applications.
Biophysics of Neurons
Neuronal biophysics concerns with many different properties. One of the most conspicuous is their mechanics. Mechanical properties appear to profoundly affect neuronal morphology, wiring, function, and motility. Using large locust cultures we are trying to explore these various effects.
